Let’s talk about distractions!! ?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s true what they say, that technology is actually making us less productive. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Just look at the world we live in. We’ve got every gadget, app, tablet, and widget we could ever imagine, and even some we couldn’t have dreamed up! With endless entertainment options, it can be hard to find time to sit down and WORK! ?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are my top strategies when I find myself pulling into procrastination station:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Time Blocking – Dedicate small blocks of time (using your phone alarm) to getting specific tasks done. ⏰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Go off the grid – I know it sounds scary but sometimes the best solution is simply powering off all of our fancy gadgets! ??♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Quiet your workspace – This is key for me! ?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Surround yourself with other high-performing people – It’s much harder to get distracted when everyone around you is focused and on task! ?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

5. Plan ahead for breaks – We all need breaks. In fact, taking predetermined breaks will actually increase your focus and productivity. ⌚️
